Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort was named a “Silver Medal Resort,” by Tennis Resorts Online, ranking the premier resort among the top 50 tennis resorts for a third consecutive year. Nestled along the sugar white sand beaches of South Walton near Sandestin, Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort features six championship clay Rubico courts and consistently receives high marks for overall tennis experience, tennis staff, instruction and game matching.

“We are honored to once again earn a spot on this prestigious list,” said Renee Broxson, tennis director at Hidden Dunes. “Our well-maintained clay Rubico courts are popular among avid tennis players, and we’re especially known for our game matching among players with like-level skills.”

Tennis Director Renee Broxson took over direction of the tennis program in August 2011 after six years as Hidden Dunes head pro. She was previously coaching the women's tennis team at University of West Florida and had served as director of tennis at Pensacola Country Club. Broxson’s expertise and attention to detail is complemented by her team members, including Tennis Pro George Cobia and Pro Shop Manager Anne Toone. Cobia has been a level 1 United States Tennis Professional for more than 25 years, and designs and leads the instructional clinics and lessons. Toone, the pro shop manager, is an expert at putting together matches for players of like-level.

Tennis Resorts Online solicits the opinions of racquet-wielding vacationers worldwide and compiles their collective experience into an annual ranking of the “Top 100 Tennis Resorts and Camps.” Resorts are ranked in more than 20 categories, ranging from the tennis courts and instruction to the quality of the accommodations and children's programs to value for the dollar.

"For the past three years our tennis group has travelled to Destin, Florida to play tennis,” said L.C. who posted an online review of Hidden Dunes Tennis Center on the website. “Each year we have returned to the Hidden Dunes Tennis Resort for drill sessions and instruction with Renee Broxson. She is an exceptional instructor. The Hidden Dunes clay courts are set in a picturesque setting. The staff always is friendly and courteous. They made our tennis experience one worth returning for every year.”

"People like coming to South Walton and Destin for the emerald water and beautiful pristine beaches, and we aim to enhance the beach experience by offering exceptional courts, instruction and game matching services for the avid tennis player," continued Broxson. “We’re also introducing more tournaments this year.”
